Jack Cafferty (CNN) asks:
One idea being tossed around as a way of dealing with [high gas prices] is the four-day workweek. Several states are considering it. Staggered work schedules would be necessary in order to keep government offices open five days a week, and some have suggested that would end up costing the taxpayers more money. It’s also an idea that may gain traction in the private sector. I, for one, think it’s a terrific idea.
Here’s my question to you: Would shifting to a four-day workweek be a good way to save fuel?
I don’t know about the fuel, but I sure would prefer a four-day workweek. Seems about right…work four days, spend one day doing the essentials (shopping, laundry, etc), and still have two days o’ weekend!
